Tijuana City Hall fines street vendors

Two establishments were closed

The XXIII City Hall of Tijuana closed two establishments, and also applied fines to 21 swap meet vendors and nine street vendors, due to the lack of permits to operate, safety measures and for not having masks; this as part of the surveillance operations in the different markets and commercial plazas installed in the nine delegations.

For the municipal president, Karla Patricia Ruiz Macfarland, it is important to guarantee the health and physical integrity of the population that visits these places. This is why the Inspection and Verification Department has emphasized to have sanitary filters in these places, and above all to make the population aware of keeping a healthy distance in order to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

The head, César Abraham Heredia Rodríguez, announced that during this weekend a seafood restaurant in the San Antonio de los Buenos Delegation was closed for lack of a permit to operate, and an OXXO convenience store, located in the El Pacifico neighborhood in Sánchez Taboada, because it did not have the required safety measures in place.

Likewise, during the tours of the main avenues and boulevards, 10 established businesses were fined for not having sanitary filters and safety measures; five street businesses for not complying with the dimensions of their premises and four more for not having permits in the International Port of Entry zone.

As for the operation carried out in the 22 swap meets, 21 vendors were fined: nine because their stalls were not properly located; eight for lack of a permit and four for selling to customers without using masks.

During this week, the Inspection and Verification personnel will also focus on the areas identified by the Health Secretariat as infection hotspots for having active cases of COVID-19, in order to have order in the different establishments. These neighborhoods are: Maclovio Rojas, Tecnológico, El Refugio and Real de San Francisco.
